All of those games have the same three clapping (although the order may be different in the specific rhymes. Here's the clapping instruction from https://www.nurseryrhymes.org/double-double-double-this-double-that.html '"Every time the lyrics say “Double”: bump fists.

Every time the lyrics say “This”: clap your hands with palms facing each other.

Every time the lyrics say “That”: clap the back of your hands with your partner." -snip- In addition, with all of these hand games the tempo increases with each iteration of the rhyme.

I don't know whether which of these games is the oldest or whether any of these games copied off of each other (or off of another hand game). **** SECOND SHOWCASE VIDEO OF THE HAND GAME "CHOCOLATE" (pronounced Cho Coh Lah Tay") Chocolate Hand Clapping Rhyme
